Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “An engaging, alarming, and enlightening book, one that is certain to be among the most important books on surveillance in the twenty-first century.” —Siva Vaidhyanathan, author of Antisocial Media Never before has so much been known about so many. CCTV cameras, TSA scanners, NSA databases, big data marketers, predator drones, “stop and frisk” tactics, Facebook algorithms, hidden spyware, and even old-fashioned nosy neighbors—surveillance has become so ubiquitous that we take its presence for granted. While many types of surveillance are pitched as ways to make us safer, almost no one has examined the unintended consequences of living under constant scrutiny and how it changes the way we think and feel about the world. In Under Surveillance, Randolph Lewis offers a highly original look at the emotional, ethical, and aesthetic challenges of living with surveillance in America since 9/11. Taking a broad and humanistic approach, Lewis explores the growth of surveillance in surprising places, such as childhood and nature. He traces the rise of businesses designed to provide surveillance and security, including those that cater to the Bible Belt’s houses of worship. And he peers into the dark side of playful surveillance, such as eBay’s online guide to “Fun with Surveillance Gadgets.” A worried but ultimately genial guide to this landscape, Lewis helps us see the hidden costs of living in a “control society” in which surveillance is deemed essential to governance and business alike. Written accessibly for a general audience, Under Surveillance prompts us to think deeply about what Lewis calls “the soft tissue damage” inflicted by the culture of surveillance. “A sprightly tour down some of the surveillance society’s most claustrophobic corridors.” —Cory Doctorow, New York Times–bestselling author

Book excerpt: Lucifer's Sanctuary is a story about love, hope, and tragedy mixed with pure evil. The evil comes from the prince of darkness himself, and the tragedy happens after a young couple named Tom and Amy McKinney lose a child and their faith in God. The story combines innocence lost with a naive notion that deals can be made with Satan. Tom and Amy are friends with Mike Cisneros, who has his own struggle with evil. He went from being one of the army's top soldiers, a Green Beret officer, to a broken man who couldn't deal with a mortal sin he committed during the Panama invasion in 1989. After resigning his commission, he decides to become a priest. He is convinced when he goes to work at the Vatican Library that he will never have to use violence again. He is wrong. There are twists and turns in the story that result when the young couple realize their mistake and want out of the deal with Lucifer. Can the church help them? Is there anyone who can deal with Lucifer in his secret sanctuary on earth? Maybe. Maybe not.

Download or read book The Porous Sanctuary written by William Freedman and published by Peter Lang Incorporated, International Academic Publishers. This book was released on 2002 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Porous Sanctuary argues that the resistance to interpretation discovered by increasingly frequent deconstructive readings of Poe's short fictions can be interpreted psychologically rather than deconstructively. The various strategies of obfuscation and evasion, conscious or otherwise, that permeate the texts serve to obscure intimidating realities typically associated with woman and the female body, which the narratives glimpse and recoil from. For Poe, art was a sanctuary from such unpalatable realities, but it was a porous one, relentlessly invaded by what it was designed to exclude. The tales, self-reflexive in this sense, typically narrate the struggle between the autotelic insularity of the work of art and the assaults of a menacing reality upon its penetrable walls.

White and published by Yesterday's World Publishing. This book was released on 2020-02-20 with total page 100 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The Lord has shown me that Satan was once an honored angel in heaven, next to Jesus Christ. His countenance was mild, expressive of happiness like the other angels. His forehead was high and broad, and showed great intelligence. His form was perfect. He had noble, majestic bearing. And I saw that when God said to his Son, Let us make man in our image, Satan was jealous of Jesus. He wished to be consulted concerning the formation of man. He was filled with envy, jealousy and hatred. He wished to be the highest in heaven, next to God, and receive the highest honors. Until this time all heaven was in order, harmony and perfect subjection to the government of God."-Ellen G White
